Commercial Description:
The magical disappearing beer! A sip of this enchanting ale leaves you with, well, nothing. While similar to the mild ales of England, this brew does have more malt flavor and alcohol content than its British cousins. The nutty sweetness, light body, and delicate texture evaporate before your tongue and your pint is gone before you know it. Okay, have another!

Pours reddish brown. Sour malt nose with a light, smooth malt flavor. It is slightly bitter and goes down just right.

Draft. Medium brown color with off white head. Nutty malt aroma. The taste was the same with nice roasted character throughout.

Cask @ the brewpub. I’m finally rating a legitimate mild! Nice darker brown color with some nutty-malt aroma. Taste has some light nutty-bread malt, tea, and a pleasant bready flavor. Wow - pretty nice.

Cask-conditioned. Golden-amber body with a velvety, cream-colored head. Malty, sweet tea aroma with cigar notes and a touch of apple. Flavor has some nice depth of malt, a little bit of graininess, and is medium sweet with modest, but deceptive bitterness. Ample flavor, but light bodied with very delicate carbonation. An enjoyable mild ale, especially on cask.

On tap at the GLI. Poured a darker copper color with a very small sized off white head. Aromas of nuts, caramel and also had a light floral and light fruitiness to it. Tastes where on the nutty side with caramel. Somewhat of a lively if not thin body. Light lacing left on the glass.

Draft. Pours copper with little head. Aroma of malt, slight hops and caramel. Tastes malty, mild indeed, with a smooth palate. Not earth-shattering, but solid.

Cask... Poured a copper color with no head. Sweet and hoppy aroma. Light bittering hops, sweet caramel, and tart passion fruit taste. Beautifully balanced, this is a nice mild.

Great example of a mild ale; light hops flavor and easy drinking.
